The Dutch lyrics are certainly very different to the earlier ones given in English.!!! My Dutch is quite good, but it would take me a while to translate them accurately ! Anyone else care to try ?? Iemand anders , dat liever komt uit Nederlands, misschien ??

Hi you can find lyrics and information about the origin of the song on my website.   www.andrerieutranslations.com   You will also find picture of the little cafe at the harbor in Hoorn (a dutch city) which was the inspiration of the song.   Father Abraham also known Pierre Kartner wrote both this song.   Het Kleine cafe aan de haven and he also wrote the Smurf song.    I have included a picture of him on my website.   Go to www.andrerieutranslations.com there go to lyrics.

HET KLEINE CAFE

De avondzon valt over straten en pleinen
de gouden zon zakt in de stad
De mensen die moe in hun huizen verdwijnen
ze hebben de dag weer gehad.
De neonreclame die knipoogt langs de ramen
het motregent zachtjes op straat.
De stad lijkt gestorven, toch klinkt er muziek
uit een deur die nog wijd open staat.


refrein:
Daar in dat kleine café aan de haven,
daar zijn de mensen gelijk en tevree.
Daar in dat kleine café aan de haven,
daar telt je geld, of wie je bent niet meer mee.

De toog is van koper toch ligt er geen loper
de voetbalclub hangt aan de muur.
de trekkast die maakt meer lawaai dan de juke-box
'n pilsje dat is er niet duur.
Een mens is daar mens, rijk of arm, 't is daar warm
geen monsieur of madam maar wc
Maar 't glas is gespoeld in het helderste water
ja 't is daar een heel goed café

refrein

De wereldproblemen die zijn tussen twee
glazen bier opgelost voor altijd.
Op de rand van een bierviltje staat daar je rekening
of, je staat in het krijt.
Het enige wat je aan eten kunt krijgen
dat is daar een hard gekookt ei.
De mensen die zijn er gelukkig gewoon
Ja, de mensen die zijn daar nog blij.

refrein   2x


Pierre Kartner
Alias Vader Abraham

It has been a while since the last post, but if you want lyrics for this song, here they are, all that I could find, write down, get others to write down, whatever it took.
From the ones was looking for, only the Italian version is still missing, if anybody can help me with those, do let me know, please.

Anyone know where I can find the sheet music to this song...Red Rose Cafe. I am interested in the melody.

By the way I just heard a great version of this by Phil Coulter!

Thanks

Looks like this hasn't been looked at for a while. Red Rose Cafe is not on the Scattering album only on the Furey's Finest and replying to an earlier post there is a red rose cafe group in Australia who meet regularly and have an annual celebration.This site also has connections:- http://www.andrerieu-movies.com/RedRoseCafe.html . Hope this is helpful
